I forgot my master password two days after. I thought I had stored it someplace and my guess the phone shaked after typing the master key and it undid the characters. FML moment. Spent a week resetting passwords. I only set passwords once. We use bitwarden. It was a pretty fuckery.
- neverminder 4y agoThis is why I have so far avoided password managers: single point of failure. What if you forget your master password. Or worse - what if your master password is stolen?
- wintermutestwin 4y ago... or what if you are traveling and your phone and laptop are lost or stolen?
- belval 4y agoYour bitwarden password manager is hosted and is only stored encrypted on your phone/laptop. So unless the thief knows your master password you should be fine.
- wintermutestwin 4y agoI understand that the thief won't have access to my accounts, but now I don't either - correct?
- fauigerzigerk 4y agoIt depends on whether you have access to the second factor. I have Authy installed on two phones for that reason.
- belval 4y agoYou would still have access to your accounts as the credentials are hosted by BitWarden or by yourself (on a personal server for example).
